Well, I was directing my reply to those who said they can't understand paying for a digital image, so my first thought was adoptables including the custom made ones.

So yea... with premades in mind, I suppose that it depends on the adoptable itself, and the way you view its role :D Going through a couple of your questions now!

Quote:
Do you think paying 20 dollars for adotable is absured like my self or would you pay $20 just to get a adoptable?
*grins* Is it worth $25+ to obtain a Celestial Steed in WoW? (God god god I'm such a nerdy gamer geek)

Yea, some people do think, "But WoW is completely different to adoptables!" I guess you could say that, but in the end, aren't they both pixels on a screen?

Again, some people might say, "The gameplay is *totally* different" (XD I had a huge debate about this with a friend of mine). But then again, it's up to you whether or not the game delivers something that you enjoy.

WoW to me is awesome, because I love the whole "WHOA" graphics, gameplay, going crazy trying to heal a full raid party and the whole social competitive thing. But then again, I love pokemon with its, "Aww so cute! Gotta run around in the grass for a billion times to get that darn shiny evee!"

I love Starcraft as I'm a sucker for RTS, but I am also completely obsessive over an online pony sim breeding game. All different types of games, but all fulfilling my love for games.

Which kinda leads to...

What would the adoptable have to have to make you pay over $5? What do you think is a fair price?
Celestial Steed? $25? Give me. Now.

Limited edition pet? Looks awesome? Into the backyard you go.

Pet with boosted stats so I can fight better, explore more and better immerse myself into the game? Count me in!

Fair price? It would depend on what they offer. Celestial steed (It does count as a premade! XD) lets me run away from allies. Definitely worth about $50 to me, though upon checking it seems to be worth in the 100s.

A limited edition pet I could go for about $10-$20, IF the artwork is good enough and if the pet is limited enough. For example, only giving out 25-50 to a gamer base of 1K. For customization, again depending on the art, I'd be willing to go up to $100+. As for why, I mentioned it in my previous post :)

As for something that makes me play more effectively coupled with amazing artwork, I'd happly pay from $5 to $20, also depending whether or not it's limited.

Would you even buy a adoptable?
